Leadership in Motion: Strategies for Building Purpose-Driven Teams

Leadership in Motion: Strategies for Building Purpose-Driven Teams

About the Guest:

Meet Bill Kramer, CEO of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Bill carries a deep appreciation for art, but despite his mother being an artist, he didn’t see it as a viable career path. So, he earned a BA in actuarial sciences and went to work supporting creatives behind the scenes.

After stints at Columbia University and the Sundance Institute, he joined the Academy and has helped to take it to new heights ever since, starting with coordinating the building of the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. Bill knows a lot about leadership and how to inspire a team with a greater purpose. Listen in to hear more about Bill’s journey to being a leader.

What You Will Learn:

  • How to balance the competing needs and desires of employees and clients
  • Why “everyone's role should feel purpose-driven and connected to a greater vision”
  • How to enter with humility, especially when there are more aspects of the job to learn
  • Why you have to be intentional about nurturing yourself outside the office

Bill drops some major knowledge in this episode—so it’s not to be missed. You’ll discover more about the Academy and its mission, see how Bill is helping fulfill that mission by being a good leader, and absorb new leadership tips for your own work. Press play and be ready to be transported into a masterclass of leadership.
